• Duplication of therapy
• Prescriptions that exceed the FDA daily or monthly quantity limit
• Most self-injectable and infusion medications 
• Drugs that have an age edit
• Drugs listed on the PDL but still requiring Prior Authorization (PA)
• Brand name drugs when a generic exists
• Drugs that have a step edit (ST) and the first-line therapy is inappropriate
